It has always been a dream of mine to visit Nepal and Climb a 7000m peak. Baruntse - 7162m (23,497 ft) is a peak in the Khumbu region and will hopefully be the highest I have yet climbed to date on any mountain. 

However, the costs of getting to the summit can sometimes be all too costly for those involved. In light of the recent events on Everest where 13 Sherpas tragically lost there lives. As a mountaineer one can not choose to  ignore such events. I myself will be relying on the assistance of Shirpas on my climb to help fix ropes and to act as guides. 

I would like to ask for you kind assistance to help me raise some funds for the the Himalayan trust which is currently helping the families of those recently deceased shirpas. The Himalayan trust works to ensure that the basic needs of the people in Nepal are met. They work to ensure that every child receives an education and in particular those in the remotest areas such as Everest and Kanchenjunga. There projects are requested by the mountain peoples of Nepal, who contribute to the projects themselves.
